@Gladiatoren3789 i cant believe you know so much abut meat yet you misspelled steak twice the same way.

[carlsjr123]

the "head piece" he is referring to is actually called the roast

[Gladiatoren3789]

@12quillemall5321 fillet mignon is the french terminology for eye fillet stakes, the eye fillet is the tender loin located underneath the sirloin, and has the only task of protecting the animals internal organs, therefore it is not exercised while the animal is alive and has a very tender and moist texture when cooked rare to medium rare.

in the other hand the "ribeye" stake is the cut from the sirloin with the eye fillet still atached to its not as expencive but still of very high quality.

I did thus yesterday at work you did a much better job than me.

My butcher gave me a special of ribeye tenderloin at $1.99 per pound. It's a large piece of meat. He said they can be sliced into steaks called filet mignon. Is ribeye without the bone, filet migon? It looks like the 12 pounder he sold me at a special, don't tell, price.
